WOMEN AND CHILDREN SUPPORT

All people have the right to live free from violence and domestic abuse. Domestic abuse is a pattern of behaviors that include the use of alcohol, coercion, and intimidation (physical, sexual, mental, emotional or financial abuse) to gain power over one's partner. People who abuse come from all classes, cultures, sex, gender, sexual orientation, race, region, ethnicity, physical or mental ability or age. People who choose to abuse are the only people capable of changing their own abusive behaviour
